BLURB:

Tess escapes from Florida with a secret as big as Miami. She
needs to find someplace to lay low and be on hide from her overbearing family.
Mackinac Island, Michigan, should be the perfect place to hide out. However,
her timing is a little off, it's the dead of winter and she's never been in
temperatures below fifty degrees. Just her luck, her landlord, Lukas, is as hot
as the sun. He's also moody and hiding secrets as well. Which suits Tess fine.
A man is the last complication she needs. A Michigan blizzard leaves them
trapped in the same house together and things heat up, fast. Tess finds herself
falling for Lukas, in spite of the secrets that could ruin everything before it
even begins.

My Review:

I really enjoyed this book. It 's a very compelling romance, romantic with a wonderful love story but aso full of mystery, both characters have secrets to hide.

Tess needs to leave Florid and go away. She finds a job in a small island of Michigan. She is not prepared to find so bitterly cold. Fortunately tTo welcome her there is her new landlord, Lukas. He tries to help her cover herself properly and lends her some clothes. Tess does not really need to fall in love but can not resist the attraction she feels for him. Tess and Lukas have very painful secrets that threaten to ruin their relationship before it begins. Their love will be stronger than their secrets?

The plot is intriguing, well-developed and very realistic, with a fast and flowing pace, I read it all in one afternoon, I could not put it down. I really loved the setting, this remote island where in the winter the only connections are the sleds and planes. A truly romantic atmosphere.

I can not wait to read the next book in this series, I'm really curious to learn more about the frat brothers of Lukas.

I highly recommend this book!

EXCERPT:

“Can I help you?” Tess licked her spoonful of peanut butter,
and Lukas coughed.

“Making sure you’re comfortable and everything is working
okay.” He nodded to her gas fireplace. “That thing giving you any trouble?”

“Where’s Dio?” She peered around him. There were only his
footprints in the snow though.

“I haven’t been to the house yet.” He shrugged. “I wanted to
check on you.”

“I’m fine. Not such an empty-headed beach bum I can’t figure
out how to turn on the heat.” She left him there at the door, figuring he knew
how to shut it when he left. Grabbing a blanket, Tess curled up on the couch,
boots and all.

Instead of taking the hint, Lukas invited himself in and
pushed the door closed. He took off his coat and tossed it over a chair. Tess
ate another spoonful of peanut butter as she watched him kneel down and check
the fireplace. The view of his flannel shirt pulled tight across his shoulders
was the best thing she’d seen in a while, and that irritated her more.

“I said it was fine,” she grumbled.

“Spoiling for a fight, huh? Must have been a bad day.” He
didn’t even look at her. “Did you not like the kids?”

It took every ounce of discipline she had not to chuck her
jar of peanut butter at his head. Not get along with the kids? He must not have
gotten the memo from Doc that she was the best teacher to hit this island in
the last decade. Then again, Doc kept that disgusting Chris employed. Doc’s
expectations must not rise above warm bodies that stayed past September.
